Default Re-installing Motor

Bros,

I've got my motor back in my car and I'm in the process of hooking all the electrical stuff back up. Although I thought that I'd marked everything, I've been finding a few unmarked connectors. This is one of them:



It's part of the injector harness and for whatever reason, I didn't mark it before removing the motor and I can't find any possible receiver for it. If anyone has any idea where it connects, I'll mail you a beer. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: The motor is a 1991 1.6L.

Coolant temp sensor, the one that goes in the thermostat housing at the back of the head.

Got it! Thanks.

Savington, where is your master cut-off switch located? I think I'm going to remove my driver's side triangle window and attach it to the a-pillar roll cage arm so it'll be reachable from both the inside and outside.

Mine is in the center console. Most folks put it right near the passenger seatbelt tower area, but I usually have a passenger seat in the car.

I wouldn't imagine it being easily accessible from the outside there, is that a problem with tech? I've read the NASA rules and it says it has to be reachable from outside the car.
